Alright 1st of all I'd like to say I'm sorry for this video taking so long to be uploaded.
2nd I'd like to apologies for my arrogance in saying this is WF(probablly is but I can't prove it so I shouldn't have used that term).

For these of you interested, the reason I'm staying alive for this entire pull is the swipe+lifeward synergy.
Swipe hits all enemies within 8? yards, and it can proc any wep enchant druid currently has.
Lifeward is a wep enchant that has 3 ppm proc chance, meaning with bear druid's 2.5 speed cca 12% chance to proc a 3xx heal, so in other words say I have 8 mobs within my attack range. it should proc on average 1 time if I use swipe.
So more mobs = more healing.

Another thing you might ask/say is that hobbs did it by going straight for boss while ignoring undead dude. Well I tried that method around 100 times, trust me I did.
I can't remember how many times I ran to Brill to repair(each attempt takes around half of your gear's dur.
Basicly the problem was too high burst dmg, Since I can only swipe every 1.5 sec and with 80-90 mobs attacking me, 1.5 sec is often not enough, sure you might live for 15-20 sec, maybe even 30 but then the rng kicks in and you go 100%-0% in 0.5 seconds.
Another problem was boss's stun which he used every 1 min. I trinket 1st one but then I have 60 seconds to kill before 2nd, and that's not easy with heals/shield and his bubble.
So I'd call hobbs's method (which he actually did 1st time 2 man, and then I think 1 man when he was 70 and geared) possible but very unprobable.

This was the only way I found was possible to one-pull entire instance.
And tbh even in this video you can see me going to less then 10% hp few times.

  • what weapon do you have? i reckon that lifeward requires a lvl 60 item.

  • @floweye1 I'm using Enchanted azsharite felbane staff, to get it at 45 you must be horde.

    The entire quest chain is roughly 11-12 quests, most of which require assistance from higher lvl player. I had help from really kind lvl 80 pally whos name I don't recall but I'm very grateful to him because he didn't even charge me for the few hours it took me to finish everything, going from blasted land all the way to demons,3 headed hydras and giants in azshara :D

  • @123croshadow You can talk and get the quests from fallen her of the horde if youre ally a well.

  • @jimgb934 Correct but at lvl 50, so this is only available for horde at LVL 45, and if some ally druid wants to do smth like this he'd have to be lvl 50 atleast ;)

  • @123croshadow I leveled a druid just to do this after watching your video, Now i can pull even mograine with all the mobs but his stuns can be pretty painful.

  • @jimgb934 Lol nice to know I inspired someone.

    Btw this is no longer possible as of 4.0.1 because swipe has 6 sec CD.

    Pulling normal mobs for quick exp is still viable so I suggest you try it out.

  • @Vexodus13 Maybe I should face my back to them? Then I wouldn't dodge and would take shitloads more dmg, also swipe.

    I tired strafing but with 30 mobs on each side of you, you still can't dodge around half of mobs also they sometimes fall behind(bug) so swipe doesn't hit them cuuse they're out of range.

  • Now that they've "nerfed" Swipe by giving it a cooldown, Is this even possible anymore?

    Did you forget to put Thorns up on purpose?

    I miss being top DPS and Heals as a Bear Tank in the Dungeon Finder. I loved doing massive pulls in BRD with Lifeward, LotP and 2x SHoJ. That Swipe+Maul macro was one-button heaven. =) The "event" in ZF was hysterical too. When I did all the quests I actually leveled from 45 to 47, how did you stay 45? At 51 you can throw Lifeward on Ice-Barbed Spear.

see all

    Obviously you're the noob if you don't know that backpeddling is necessary for these types of pulls.
